• Solid understanding of networking fundamentals (DNS, TCP/IP, firewalls, load balancing)
• Hands-on experience with AWS (EC2, VPC, IAM, S3, etc.)
• Experience deploying and managing production services
• Familiarity with infrastructure as code (CDK, Terraform, CloudFormation, etc.)
• Experience with containers (Docker) and ideally orchestration (Kubernetes or ECS)

• Experience in startups or small teams
• Contributions to open source or personal projects
